My issue with it, that its not enough. 100kg loss can be done quite easily by yourself on the S, while modding it. The zorst weighs about 60 kg from memeory :eek: Lose the spare wheel, take all the roof motors out and stick a Mugen hardtop on it, lightweight alloys, seats and brakes and you are there! Even FI can be done on the cheap. Should have looked like my old un ![]() MB |

I have a soft spot for the S2000's but as i'm not a hair dresser I will never own one. The Type R should be champ white as all proper type R's actually are! |

Haidresser?? ![]() Its anything but that - a lot of people are quick to dismiss it on that basis. The car was built to go fast and the engineering behind it is incredible. Monocoque, most bhp per litre na, 9000 rpm, brakes far better than anything ive been in and RWD. It would stick with an FQ300 no bother too!

Mark in reply to your post... I know I know I know I know I know I think they are cracking cars always have done and wouldnt dismiss then for a second However I just dont think they would be practical for my needs, which is the reason I didnt buy an S2000 or NSX. |

Yeah got to admit the Evo was a godsend all round for practicality. Even getting out of the S2000 was tricky at times, although the boot was fine enough for shopping etc... I will have another one though! MB |
